Production and secretion of C-19 steroids by rat and guinea pig adrenals.

Abstract:

:The concentrations of C-19 steroids were measured in guinea pig and rat adrenals before and after castration as well as after stimulation with adrenocorticotropin hormone (ACTH). Characterization of adrenal C-19 steroids was also carried out by isolation with high-performance liquid chromatography and gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS). From radioimmunoassay (RIA) data, androstenedione (4-DIONE) and 11 beta hydroxyandrostenedione (11 beta-DIONE) were the major C-19 steroids found in guinea pig adrenals, and castration induced a decrease of 4-DIONE levels only while all other C-19 steroids remained unchanged. In rat adrenals, the major C-19 steroids were 4-DIONE and testosterone, and they were also markedly inhibited after castration. With the exception of 11 beta-DIONE, all other C-19 steroids in circulation were eliminated after castration in both animals species. After ACTH administration in the guinea pig, adrenal 4-DIONE and 11 beta-DIONE levels were markedly stimulated, while an increase of only 11 beta-DIONE was observed in plasma. In the rat, ACTH had a small stimulatory effect on adrenal 52-androstane-3 alpha, 17 beta-diol (3 alpha-DIOL) and plasma 11 beta-DIONE levels. Analysis of guinea pig adrenal steroids by GC/MS confirmed the presence of C-19 steroids in adrenals (namely, 4-DIONE and 11 beta-DIONE) while, in the rat, this could not be confirmed. Our data indicate that production of C-19 steroids occurs in guinea pig adrenals, and 11 beta-DIONE is the major C-19 steroid as well as the only C-19 steroid secreted into the circulation. In the rat, the production of C-19 steroids detected by RIA is not supported by GC/MS data.
